A Head of Our Time!

Episodes include:

Mega-City One, 2130 AD. This vast urban nightmare on the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America is home to 400 million citizens, every one a potential criminal. With lawlessness rife, only the Judges can prevent total anarchy. These future lawmen are judge, jury and executioner. Toughest of them all is Judge Dredd - he is the law!
Inspired by Clint Eastwood in Dirty Harry; the film poster for Death Race 2000. The name Judge Dredd came from Pat Mills who was originally going to use it for a different character.
The first Judge Dredd story published was drawn by Mike McMahon, not co-creator Carlos Ezquerra. Ezquerra was so upset that he didn't draw Dredd for five years afterwards, only returning for the Apocalypse War mega-epic.

Inspired by John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson in Pulp Fiction.Artist Jason Brashill declined the chance to co-create Sinister Dexter but he did paint the cover image to promote the characters' first appearance in Prog 981.
Sinister is Latin for left, while Dexter is Latin for right.

Terror has descended upon the galaxy. Once a place of peace and order, now races wage war upon one another unchecked by any authority.

San Francisco, 1967. Experiments into the effects of LSD have revealed the extraordinary potential the drug can unlock in the human brain.

But from out of the desert comes the evil Caliban...
